Output is not displaying in HTML format after transforming the xml result using xslt when the attrib-CodePudding

My xml has just 1 value as name =RDXXX-LOWER_DECK, value=10 mm. When this is transformed using xslt I get output correctly as below:

 <table>
 <tr valign="top">
 <td width="200">RDXXX-LOWER_DECK</td>
 <td width="200">10.000000000000 mm</td>
 </tr>
 </table>

But when I replace RDXXX-LOWER_DECK as RDXXX||LOWER_DECK (hyphen is replaced with double pipe) I don't get the output. Empty value is printed and name is printed as "Attribute" .

 <table>
 <tr valign="top">
 <td width="200">Attribute</td>
 <td width="200"></td>
 </tr>
 </table>

KIndly let me know how to retain || in the output.

If by that you mean that you have an XML like this:

<RDXXX-LOWER_DECK>10mm</RDXXX-LOWER_DECK>

and you changed it to look like this:

<RDXXX||LOWER_DECK>10mm</RDXXX||LOWER_DECK>

then you no longer have a well-formed XML document. The | character is not allowed in an element name.

... I don't get the output. Empty value is printed and name is printed as "Attribute" .

That is strange, because you should have been getting an error.
